Welcome! This is where I document experiments and verified code snippets that I find useful.
Collapsible Code Block
A smart code block component that automatically collapses when content exceeds 480px height, allowing users to expand/collapse with a click.
<script setup lang="ts">
import { twMerge } from "tailwind-merge";
const props = defineProps({
code: {
type: String,
default: "",
},
class: {
type: String,
default: null,
},
});
const { copy, copied } = useClipboard();
const isExpanded = shallowRef(false);
const preElementRef = useTemplateRef("pre-element");
const maxHeight = shallowRef("480px");
watch(preElementRef, (element) => {
if (!element) return;
if (element.scrollHeight <= 480) {
maxHeight.value = "auto";
}
});
const toggleExpand = (element: HTMLPreElement) => {
maxHeight.value = isExpanded.value
? "480px"
: `${element.scrollHeight + 24}px`; // Add 24px to account for padding
useToggle(isExpanded)();
};
const isCollapsible = computed(
() => preElementRef.value && preElementRef.value.scrollHeight > 480,
);
</script>
<template>
<div class="relative space-y-4">
<UiButton @click="copy($props.code)">
<PhosphorIcon
:name="{ clipboard: !copied, 'clipboard-text': copied }"
size="20"
weight="duotone"
/>
{{ copied ? "Copied" : "Copy" }}
</UiButton>
<div
class="ease-in-out-circ group relative cursor-pointer overflow-hidden rounded-xl border p-3 backdrop-blur-md transition-all duration-300"
:style="{ maxHeight }"
@click="isCollapsible && preElementRef && toggleExpand(preElementRef)"
>
<pre
ref="pre-element"
:class="[
'text-sm text-wrap',
twMerge(
isCollapsible &&
!isExpanded &&
'transition-opacity hover:opacity-80',
$props.class as string | undefined,
),
]"
><slot /></pre>
</div>
</div>
</template>
Cursor Tracker
An intelligent cursor effect which adapts based on the properties an element has.
<script lang="ts" setup>
import { createAnimatable } from "animejs/animatable";
const isElementSnappable = (element: Element | null) =>
element?.closest("[data-snap-cursor]") !== null;
const ANIMATION_DURATION = 300;
const cursorSprite = useTemplateRef("cursor-sprite");
const cursorSpriteAnimatable = computed(() => {
if (!cursorSprite.value) return null;
return createAnimatable(cursorSprite.value, {
x: ANIMATION_DURATION,
y: ANIMATION_DURATION,
scale: ANIMATION_DURATION,
opacity: ANIMATION_DURATION,
ease: "out(3)",
}) as any;
});
const { x, y, pointerType } = usePointer();
watch([x, y, pointerType], ([newX, newY, newPointerType]) => {
if (!cursorSpriteAnimatable.value) return;
else if (newPointerType !== "mouse") return;
// elementFromPoint uses viewport-relative coordinates
const currentElement = document.elementFromPoint(newX, newY);
const shouldSnap = isElementSnappable(currentElement);
cursorSpriteAnimatable.value.scale(shouldSnap ? 0 : 1);
cursorSpriteAnimatable.value.opacity(shouldSnap ? 0 : 1);
// Position uses page-relative coordinates to account for scrolling
cursorSpriteAnimatable.value.x(newX + window.pageXOffset - 40);
cursorSpriteAnimatable.value.y(newY + window.pageYOffset - 40);
});
</script>
<template>
<div
class="absolute -z-10 aspect-square h-20 rounded-full border border-dashed opacity-0"
ref="cursor-sprite"
/>
</template>
Spotlight Card
A card component with a mouse-following spotlight effect that illuminates based on pointer movement and focus states. Inspired by vue-bits.dev.
<script setup lang="ts">
interface Position {
x: number;
y: number;
}
interface SpotlightCardProps {
className?: string;
spotlightColor?: string;
}
const { className = "", spotlightColor = "rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5)" } =
defineProps<SpotlightCardProps>();
const spotlightCardRef = useTemplateRef("spotlight-card");
const isFocused = shallowRef(false);
const position = shallowRef<Position>({ x: 0, y: 0 });
const opacity = shallowRef(0);
const handleMouseMove = (event: MouseEvent) => {
if (!spotlightCardRef.value || isFocused.value) return;
const rect = spotlightCardRef.value.getBoundingClientRect();
position.value = {
x: event.clientX - rect.left,
y: event.clientY - rect.top,
};
};
const handleFocus = () => {
isFocused.value = true;
opacity.value = 0.6;
};
const handleBlur = () => {
isFocused.value = false;
opacity.value = 0;
};
const handleMouseEnter = () => {
opacity.value = 0.6;
};
const handleMouseLeave = () => {
opacity.value = 0;
};
</script>
<template>
<div
ref="spotlight-card"
@mousemove="handleMouseMove"
@focus="handleFocus"
@blur="handleBlur"
@mouseenter="handleMouseEnter"
@mouseleave="handleMouseLeave"
:class="['relative overflow-hidden rounded-3xl border p-8', className]"
>
<div
class="pointer-events-none absolute inset-0 opacity-0 transition-opacity duration-500 ease-in-out"
:style="{
opacity,
background: `radial-gradient(circle at ${position.x}px ${position.y}px, ${spotlightColor}, transparent 80%)`,
}"
/>
<slot />
</div>
</template>
